Product: laptop 15
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,  I have a laptop with a power cord where the outer insulation has started coming off.  I can see the different colored wires it houses, but no bare wiring.  I saw that the replacement cost is over $60.00.  Should I get a replacement or wait until it is unusable? I don;t have any trouble charging the laptop.

What is your laptop 15  ? Is it the cord from wall to the power brick or something else ? If ONLY the cord from AC outlet to the power brick you can buy for few dollars from nearly all good electrical shops in your country. Just bring the whole unit to a shop and they can work out which one you need (the main point is Amp).

 

Regards.
